Questions about this journey
Does a higher points multiplier improve trading returns?
It changes eligible scoring under the programme rules, not the profitability of a trade. Fees, funding, slippage and losses still apply.
Is Origami already awarding points at the time of this curation?
Its guide schedules the programme launch for October 16, 2026 at 00:00 UTC, or 5:30 AM IST. Check the actual programme status and epoch rules rather than assuming a scheduled launch has happened.
